Safe use of the internet and managing screen time are becoming the biggest challenges to parenting and children’s mental health and well-being. Here is a brilliant resource with easy advice on the steps you can take as a parent to keep children as safe as possible.
On the afternoon of Tuesday 26th June, we were treated to a return visit from Neil Zetter.
Neil describes himself as a London-based comedy performance poet, author and entertainer. He uses his poetry to develop literacy, confidence, self-expression, creativity, performance and presentation skills in 3-103 year olds.
He makes language fun and accessible for the least engaged and stretches and challenges the most motivated. He certainly entertained us today with poems of superheroes.
The children really enjoyed his previous presentation, and this year’s visit, and Neil really enjoyed visiting us.
If you want to buy one of his books, it may not be too late.
Our Pupil Parliament are organising a world cup sweepstake to raise money for sports equipment for third world countries.
If you would like to take part and perhaps win a prize, then bring in £1. Teams will be drawn at random by the end of the week.
The year 5/6 inter-house maths competition is now complete with Trott House being crowned as champions! Although Farah House took victory in Year 6, Trott House achieved a larger lead in year 5 allowing them to take the overall prize.
Both year groups took part in a quiz which required them, in teams, to not only to calculate answers but also make estimations, draw shapes and remember mathematical information. Well done to everyone who took part! Your enthusiasm was amazing!
The year 3/4 inter-house maths competition (timetables) is still ongoing this month. Will Trott House take the prize again?
Reminder: Class photos tomorrow!
Club photos will also be taken so would members of the football and netball teams please bring their PE kits including boots and trainers. Thank you!
